Dirty Crazy Bad: The Complete Collection

by Siobhan Davis

A dark, secret society, reverse harem romance from USA Today & Wall Street Journal bestselling author Siobhan Davis. This set includes the prequel, Dirty Crazy Bad book 1, Dirty Crazy Bad book 2, and exclusive brand-new bonus content told from multiple character POVs.

In the secret society of The Luminaries, no sin will go unpunished…

Sleeping with my boyfriend’s best friend, behind his girlfriend’s back, probably wasn’t my smartest idea.

But Jase is mine, and it’s about time Julia knew it.

Attending Lowell University was supposed to be a fresh start. A chance to end all the sneaking around and make our relationship official.

I couldn’t have been more wrong.

Julia is digging her claws into Jase.

My boyfriend, Chad, is getting in deeper with a local gang.

And my loathsome new stepbrother, Ares, has just moved in.

Ares despises Chad and Jase, and the feeling is mutual. As their rivalry escalates, Ares seems determined to use me as a pawn, and I’m trapped in the middle. It doesn’t help that he’s hot AF, knows exactly how to push my buttons, and my body hasn’t gotten the memo he’s off-limits.

I wish that were the least of my worries.

Pride. Wrath. Lust. Envy. Greed. Gluttony. Sloth.

My life turns upside down the moment the dark secret society of The Luminaries is revealed to me.

Everything I thought I knew was a lie.

Now, I have lost all control over my future, and a heart-breaking new reality emerges.

One where lovers become enemies, enemies become allies, and corrupting sinners to sin is my only way to survive.

[Kursed Reads · Rating 5 out of 5]

I have so many feelings. I’m turned on. I’m pissed off. I’m perplexed.

Ready for her first year at Lowell University, Ashley Shaw moves in with her boyfriend, Chad Baldwin. As they christen the living room, they’re greeted by her stepbrother and tormentor, Ares Haynes. And just like that, one by one, things start to fall apart.

Dirty Crazy Bad is a story with so many layers to peel back. I love that when you think you’ve peeled back all the layers, there’s a landmine waiting to fcuk up all your theories. As always, there is intricate world building and multidimensional characters

I love the way, Ashley owns her sexuality. She’s strong and confident, a total badass!

Ares is the quintessential bad boy oozing big D energy. He’s the guy you love to hate, but still want to pound you into next week.

Loved being back in the secret world of the Luminaries. Seeing the different POVs for some favorite scenes and the never-before-seen bonus material was fun!

Look, I’m not going to give much away...
But woah…My head, my heart and my emotions are all over the place… which isn’t anything new when it comes to Siobhan Davis books but god damn this series packed a punch!! I was completely hooked from the first page. The thrill, the heat, the kink… freaking about this book… holy hell… did I mention the heat?

This book has so many twists and turns, that it will have your head spinning and when you think you have it all figured out, THINK AGAIN... I loved Ashley, she’s brave, sassy, witty, strong-willed and comfortable with her own sexuality. The boys? SO. FREAKING. HOT!! Siobhan Davis is top-tier and I love everything she writes!

These books were so amazing. All of the characters were awesome. We met Ashlee, Jase and Chad in the Sainthood so it was so great getting their story. Having Aries added to the story made this that much better.

These books are usually for Siobhan. Bringing so much angst, intrigue, spice and all the story and plot that you can get. So many times will you gasp at revelations and secrets revealed.

I love books about secret societies especially when they all have their own set of rules and everything.

Prequel:
5⭐|2🌶|25%

So, this is the prequel for the duet. It's also strongly connected with "The Sainthood" series. I haven't read it yet, but I'll definitely read it before I continue with this duet. I just "need" to read my freebies first before I have KU soon. Yes, I'm an extreme planner, so that I'll get out the most from my subscription time 😎

Oh, I see a looooot of drama and more...
And yes, it already shocked me 😱 Not because of any trigger (there aren't any, yet), but of what will cause all the drama. And I'm so excited to read the full story soon 🤩

Yes, that's not really a review 🙈 But I think sometimes it's enough to just show what you've read and spread the words 😁

Book 1:
5⭐|4🌶|14%frequency

I'm so done with it. Do you hear me?? I'M DONE WITH IT!!! I can't read another book by Siobhan!
Honestly, girls, what the actual f is she doing to me? First, I finished the Sainthood series, and now this one here. I don't even talk about the Mafia series because I haven't read them all yet, but soon. Yes, of course I'll read more books 😁 It would not just be crazy not to.
As I said, I just finished the Sainthood series and thought it's not possible to top that. But f, this series is at least as good as that.
I don't even know what to say 🙈

I quote something: "Honestly, I’ll have to start an actual written list if this continues ’cause there’s no way I’ll be able to keep track of everything I need to ask."
Oh yes, I felt the same 🤣 The beginning of the book was so "confusing". Don't get me wrong, it needed to be, and I knew there was something coming... And I was super excited to get to all of it. But sometimes it felt weird 🙈

And another quote: “You are grasping this a lot quicker than most would.”
Yeah, I'm *most". I still have my problems with the whole history 🤣🙈 And that's what makes it so absolutely perfect 🤩

I'm so excited to get to the second book. Because obviously it ends with a cliffhanger. And don't let me start with this freaking cliffhanger. It nearly ☠️ me. I'm just glad the series is complete. Because I wouldn't have survived it otherwise 😱


Book 2:
5⭐|4🌶|10%

I can't breathe anymore 😱 This book... OMG. And that's why I start with a quote:
"My head is about to explode with all this new knowledge."
Why? Because yeah, that's how I felt too 🙈
This series is so completely full of twists and surprises, I can't even count them anymore. And all the explanations and history... Sooo good 🤩

I love multiple POV. But Chad's POV in the first half of the book broke me. Not just my heart, but me 😭 I'm already crying again just writing this and thinking about it again 😭

Then there is the wedding night. OMG 😱😱😱
It's so freaking 🔥 But it's also, how can I describe it without saying too much 🤔 It's crazy 🙈 Abso-freaking-lutely crazy. I definitely haven't read anything like that before. But as much as I love why choose romance, I haven't read many good ones yet. Siobhan definitely hit everything a good why choose should have. Absolute perfection 🤩 And not the first time. She already did it with the Sainthood series, and I loved seeing Harlow and her guys so often again here 😍

Siobhan does not just know how to write perfect why choose romances. She also knows how to write a duet with each 500 pages without having a single boring second while reading it. It's not overloaded with action, but the time between is still catching 🤩 I could say it was a quick read, but that's just crazy with 1k pages, and still it catches so much that I couldn't stop reading and finished both books in just 3 days 🤯

ALL OF THE STARS!!!

Book #1

Just when I think Siobhan can't get any kinkier or darker with her stories – she releases another one!!

Dirty Crazy Bad is literally just that!! Dirty! Crazy! and Bad! But it is soooo damn good!!

Just read the blurb and that's all you need. Just know that if you thought you've read some dark themes and steamy sex scenes – you haven't read anything yet.

Yes, there is A LOT of sex in this book. And it's very kinky and steamy. But it's how Siobhan blends that into this story intense and suspenseful plot that keeps it all from going too far overboard.

Siobhan creates some very complex characters whose lives are not what they seem, even to them. Siobhan starts this story off perfectly with a jaw-dropping prologue and then takes us back to where it all started and builds the story up from there.

I could not put this book down once I started. I needed to know where this story was going and what would happen next because so much happened in every scene. Betrayals, revelations, secrets and twists happening left and right. You truly don't know who to trust or what anyone is capable of.

Speechless – I really don't know what to say other than just go read this book if you are a lover of dark, intense romance stories.

BOOK #2

I don't even know what to say.

DCB2 is even more tantalizing, jaw dropping and suspenseful as DCB1.

Siobhan holds nothing back as she takes readers on an intense & dangerous ride with twists you can't imagine to deliver a superb ending.

This book (whole duet) is not for the faint of heart as there are some depraved scenes that have your heart breaking. The secret society is more cruel and twisted than you'll ever envision - they are the law.

Let's not forget that woven into all that mayhem, is some swoon-worthy and very hot harem romance. Chad, Jase & Ares do not let our girl down in so many ways.

DCB2 is a suspenseful thriller that will keep you guessing til the end. Siobhan packs a heavy story with amazing characters and delivers an epic ending.

[Jenifer Briggs · Rating 4 out of 5]

I actually read this whole boxset over again to see if I could pick up on all the clues I missed the first time around, and it's just insane what this author does to me! Ashley and her men go through SO much here -- all the painful revelations, secrets, heartbreaks, the crazy secret society, familial ties, and the love they find in the midst of all of it just made my head explode!

DCB1: Still such a crazy ride! I am still solely on #teamashley because I love her so much and Chad, Jase and Ares put her through absolute hell. Whether intentional or not, I'll leave that up to you, but goodness I just wanted to give my girl a hug! Just when she thought she had things figured out we were boom shackled with another twist! And that ending is still SO freaking painful. Seriously what a cruel cliffy!

DCB2: Ares really broke my heart, and I still feel like he was kind of an afterthought with the Harem. He and Ashley had a beautiful relationship but he fought sharing her to the very end, and I just wish there was more time exploring the dynamics of all of that in the original books. I understand the plot kind of overtook the romance because it was such a big plot, and every character was twisted in one way or another, but I just wish that Ares got the extra attention he deserved. But even though Jase totally made me swoon with how devoted he was to our girl, it was Chad's story that had me on tenterhooks. He really got the most of the abuse out of the book, and I wish we got more time with his healing journey too, but I am so glad Ashley and him were able to come together and not only repair what was broken, but form an even better relationship as well. Plus the actual plot is INSANE. I have no idea how Siobhan does it but she just wows me every single time!

As for the extra chapters, they were so good!! Siobhan clearly knows what her readers want, and she delivers! I can't wait for all the extra tricks she has up her sleeves!

**I received an ARC of this book and these are my honest opinions**

This duet is some of Siobhan Davis' best work. From the secret society to some seriously spicy heat. There is something for everyone but mostly lovers of dark romance and why choose. I stayed on the edge of my seat as I rode each twist and turn. I thoroughly enjoyed this ride, and I highly recommend this read. This is my honest opinion, freely given.

[FS Meurinne · Rating 5 out of 5]

In this story, I was immersed in a riveting journey through a dark, secret society and a tangled reverse harem romance. The audiobook, narrated by Ramona Master and Michael Gallagher, delivered an immersive experience, capturing the intensity of betrayals, revelations, and steamy encounters. Siobhan's storytelling prowess kept me hooked from the jaw-dropping prologue to the suspenseful twists that unfolded throughout. The mature content and dark romance theme were expertly handled, making for an addictive listen. The second part heightened the suspense, offering an unforgettable conclusion filled with depraved drama, swoon-worthy romance, and unexpected turns. This audiobook series is a must-listen for those craving a captivating blend of complexity, sensuality, and intriguing characters. Siobhan Davis masterfully weaves a tale that resonates long after the final word.

[Marissa Myers · Rating 5 out of 5]

This contains the prequel, dirty bad 1 and 2 and bonus content. This series is very dark and I absolutely loved it. Siobhan has this was of creating worlds around you that just draw you in and you don’t want to ever come out. Ashley, Ares, Jase and Chad are a power house team! Ashley faces so much crap and still fights even when she get hits hard. This world contains some of the darkest corners of the world. So much happens that will just completely shock you. This is a must read! Congrats Siobhan for another fantastic series!

[Hannah · Rating 5 out of 5]

Dirty Crazy Brilliant

I love a good secret society story and this one delivers in spades. This is a reread and it holds up very nicely indeed.

The duet is set within Siobhan’s Sainthood world. It’s been a while since I read it and definitely need a refresher, but the duet stands strongly by itself without reading the others. I challenge you to not immediately go and read the Sainthood books when this is finished though!

[Sasha Wheeler · Rating 4 out of 5]

I really wanted to see some change happen within the organization after everything. I’ll have to check and see if there are more books in the same universe that I can follow this up with.

Other than that I really enjoyed it!!

[Mona Brown · Rating 5 out of 5]

With this you get to enjoy all the goodies....and some bonus content that you will not believe. You get to binge read all of these in one place. You will not be able to stop once you start.

[Caribbean · Rating 5 out of 5]

Siobhan 😭😭 Thank you for this. I really hope it isn’t the end. This is hands down my read of the year. Nothing has been able to top it and the bonus scenes are the cherry on top. Even after reading it I still feel like I need more. I’m not ready to let them go yet. I love how you bring out the main characters and still write the background characters well enough to keep us invested in their stories as well. If it was up to me I’d want this story to continue to go on because there’s so much more I want to know.

[Petrina · Rating 5 out of 5]

Part 1:
I’ve been turning the words over in my head trying to figure out how best to describe this book without spoiling anything, so here goes. About 25% into the book (Part 1), I thought I had a solid grasp on the plot and it’s direction but I was wrong. And I couldn’t have been more delighted. Not all is ever what it seems. That’s all I’m saying plot wise.

This book follows Ashley, Chad and Jace (whom we met briefly in The Sainthood series and this series’ prequel that is part of this set) and Ares, her new stepbrother. Regardless of the steaminess, I wasn’t a fan of any of her guys in Part 1, but aren’t those really the best enemies to lovers books? Ares: needs to grow up. Chad: also needs to grow up. Jace: I don’t want to toss him off a cliff anymore lol. With that doozy of a cliffhanger, it looks like they’ll get plenty of chances to prove their worthy of Ashley.

I can’t wait to see what happens after the revelation at the end. The stakes have never been higher. Part 2 can’t get here fast enough.

Part 2:
Let’s just jump into the good stuff. this book picks up right where Part 1 ended. This plot is so twisty and it was refreshing to see all our favorite peeps finally working together. I liked Ash in Part 1, but I absolutely LOVED her in Part 2. She’s tough as nails and doesn’t take anything lying down. Everything I disliked about Ares in Part 1 was explained in this book and I REALLY loved him in this book. The secrets revealed explained SO MUCH about his behavior in Part 1. I felt his internal struggles so deeply that I cried for this man on more than one occasion. I’d liken him to a Tootsie Roll Pop. That outer layer is thick and hard (minds out of the gutter y’all lol) but once you chew through it, you get the yummy, gooey center. That’s Ares for me in this book 😍 Jase was also swoon worthy in this book. SWOON. WORTHY. His acceptance of all things Ash was beautiful and illustrated just how much he would do for her. And as we get deeper into their world’s secrets, we learn just how deeply he loves his Temptress. Their scenes together were 🥵🔥🥵🔥. While Chad did grow on me, I’m still not sure how I feel about him. The explanation for his actions in Part 1 did not totally redeem him in my eyes like it did with the other two. I can’t elaborate without spoiling the story, so I’ll just leave it at that. Despite my inconclusive feelings about him, he did step up to protect Ash in Part 2 after doing nothing but hurt her in Part 1. That was part of what redeemed him a little. When I say that I love how they all worked together, I’m including Chad in that statement. And there were some pretty amusing scenes involving all four of them and Ares’ struggle to share Ash that brought some necessary lightness to the dark world they’re traversing.

The secrets revealed in this book were unexpected and rewarding. They also happened throughout the book giving us enough time to wrap our heads around one reveal before we tackled another one. The pacing of the story was perfect. It was like a domino effect. One secret would be revealed and I was like “THAT’S why this happened, that then caused that to happen” and so one. Evil has a lot of faces in this book. The allure of power being one of them. And the last two twists revealed were like a one-two knockout. I was NOT expecting either…. and yet, looking back on what we’ve read, they made sense… but only after all of the other secrets were revealed. They certainly aren’t anything you would guess ahead of time. The intricacies of all of the secrets in this twisted tale were woven together so well that it all actually made sense in the end. I now understand why this had to be broken into two parts. We wouldn’t have gotten all of these necessary details if it were shortened to one book and the details made this story. The ending was so satisfying.

The side characters in this book added so much enjoyment to the story as well. They were a necessary and enjoyable part of the story. I’m looking at you Bree, Baz, and Knight. I would love to see them have their own books, but if not, I’ll always treasure their involvement with this story. But let it be known: I’d love to see more of this world starting with those three.

I definitely recommend this book series. I do want to caution readers that there are some parts in Part 2 that are very difficult read. If you can get through those 15 pages or so, I promise it’s SO worth it.

Bonus Extended Epilogue:

It was great to see scenes from the first 2 books told from a different character’s POVs. I also enjoyed seeing more of their lives together after the ending of all of the chaos. HOWEVER, this solidifies that I need Bree and Knight to have a book. I. NEED. IT. Especially after those bonus scenes. It’d also still be cool to see Baz meet a girl that knocks him on his behind (with love of course).

Dirty crazy bad box set
By: Siobhan Davis

📚💕⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💕📚

Truly mind blown!

First off Siobhan Davis is literally the only author I knowingly read that end in a cliffhanger! I know she’ll come back and put my heart at ease even knowing she’s going to break it first. In the first half of this harem duet we get introduced to four people all with things that are individual and often together. College life is an adventure then you add blackmail and worlds get turned upside down.

The author writing is flawless, and the words are so captivating, the plot had so many twists and turns and none that I was expecting, and many shockingly intimate I have become a huge fan of this author. The author writes with so much intensity and emotion pulled from each book it’s felt page after page. Some are quick witted story lines are so perfect and lets you believe you have a front row seat. So being able to read this love story didn’t disappoint. The authors ability to have two separate individuals struggling in their everyday life and try to navigate someone else’s thoughts, needs and desires was intense and gives all the fills.

Authors Blurb: Sleeping with my boyfriend’s best friend, behind his girlfriend’s back, probably wasn’t my smartest idea.

But Jase is mine, and it’s about time Julia knew it.

Attending Lowell University was supposed to be a fresh start. A chance to end all the sneaking around and make our relationship official.

I couldn’t have been more wrong.

Julia is digging her claws into Jase.

My boyfriend, Chad, is getting in deeper with a local gang.

And my loathsome new stepbrother, Ares, has just moved in.

Ares despises Chad and Jase, and the feeling is mutual. As their rivalry escalates, Ares seems determined to use me as a pawn, and I’m trapped in the middle. It doesn’t help that he’s hot AF, knows exactly how to push my buttons, and my body hasn’t gotten the memo he’s off-limits.

I wish that were the least of my worries.

Pride. Wrath. Lust. Envy. Greed. Gluttony. Sloth.

My life turns upside down the moment the dark secret society of The Luminaries is revealed to me.

Everything I thought I knew was a lie.

Now, I have lost all control over my future, and a heart-breaking new reality emerges.

One where lovers become enemies, enemies become allies, and corrupting sinners to sin is my only way to survive.

And

Book 2
📚💕⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💕📚

Oh me oh my!

In the second book in the dirty crazy bad duet we get everything we hoped for and so much more. We get answers to awaited questions. Some intensity that is of course expected and passion beyond the imagination. I'm honored to have been introduced to this amazing authors books. She certainly know how to keep the reader addicted to her writing. The one thing about this book I enjoyed was it keeps you wondering what’s next.

Authors Blurb: In the secret society of The Luminaries, no sin will go unpunished…

The Greed & Gluttony Luminary has trapped us into executing his evil plans, and it seems we have little option but to agree. Carter has orchestrated Chad’s kidnapping, and he holds my mom’s life in his hands.

Then he drops a game-changer.

We must play our parts—or at least look like we are—because the fate of our loved ones, and the world at large, depends upon it. There is no choice.

It’s a delicate balancing act, with many obstacles and no guarantee of success. Carter has spent years planning his takeover and knowing who to trust is impossible.

Teamwork is the only way we can defeat him. But that is challenging when relationships are fractured, the guys are sworn enemies, and loyalties have been pushed to their limits.

It’s up to me to make this work, so I will push my grief aside to be there for Ares, Jase, and Chad.

Rhett Carter cannot become Lord of the Luminaries and we're the only ones that can stop him.

This book has everything I love in a book. Then you add that it's beautifully written. It is easily a five star read. Written in multiple POV one of my personal favorite this story flows so incredibly well that the next thing you know your 80% into the book and loving every second of it. The believable way the characters interact is perfect. Run, Hop, Jump or use your (1 click) finger to do whatever you have to do and get this amazing book. It'll break your heart, you'll want to scream with frustration and it'll let you discover that love just might conquer all. The chemistry is steamy and sweet and oh so romantic.

♥️ DIRTY CRAZY BAD: A PREQUEL SHORT STORY

Dirty Crazy Bad is a prequel to a full-length novel releasing this summer with the same name. I am obsessed with Siobhan Davis’s books and the Sainthood- Boys of Lowell High so I am soooo excited about this new series! You don’t have to read that series to start the new one but I do recommend it since it’s amazing! I don’t want to give anything away so I won’t get into the story but I will say I am here for it. I am already hooked in with these characters and can’t wait to see what is going to happen next.

♥️ DIRTY CRAZY BAD: BOOK 1

6 Hearts

Holy. Fucking. Shit. This book!!! I love reverse harem. I love enemies-to-lovers. I crave dark romance. This book is all of that in beautifully twisted bow. I am obsessed! Siobhan’s writing is addictive and twisted and I am here for it. It always questions my sanity and I just have to own it. I have a twisted mind and I love bad boys and these boys all have different personalities and all hot in their beautiful and fucked up ways. I have fallen for all of them but I do have a favorite. I would usually get into the storyline without spoilers but I can’t even do that. I can say that it’s a wild, hot, emotional ride and it’s not for the faint at heart. Enjoy the ride!! I can’t wait for the next one. It’s one of my favorite books of the year! 🔥

P.S. My heart is still pounding.

Quotes:

“Most girls would freak if their man came home all bloody and sweaty, but you kiss me and tell me I’m your hero.”

“I hate you,” she whispers.
“You hate yourself more.”

“Please let me take care of you,” he adds, lowering his tone.

♥️ DIRTY CRAZY BAD: BOOK 2

Dirty Crazy Bad: Book Two is the second book in the duet by Siobhan Davis. This duet is everything I expected and more when it comes to Siobhan’s badass stories. Her words are addictive and I will always want another hit. I can’t really get into the storyline with this one without spoilers so this will be quick.

Ashley, Jase, Chad, and Ares are just pieces on a chess board for Rhett Carter. He wants to takeover the Luminaries and he needs everyone to play their parts. He wants to be in control of every move in the game but the next generation has other plans. The only way they can win at this game is to work together. The three men in Ash’s life have to let go of their hatred to have a future, but first they need to get Carter back. Will they make it through this twisted, dark, and deadly game?

Wow!! My mind is blown. The twists. The heat. The swoon. The suspense. It has it all. I love dark and twisted and RH and just damn… Siobhan gets me, she really gets me. Lol. I love Ash and her men. She is a badass who knows what she wants and her men are all so different but one thing they have in common is the way they love her. I do have my fave but love them all. I hope to see them again one day since I am really hoping for a few of the supporting characters get their own books someday.

It really does not get any better than this . One of my absolute favorite series all in one place . Dirty Crazy Bad prequel , Dirty Crazy Bad Duet Book 1&2 )
🖤Dirty Crazy Bad Prequel - What a prequel to what I can already tell will be a fabulous new duet . Steam , Intrigue, twists and turns, wonderfully written characters( the sainthood crew ) witty banter , angst , phenomenal world building, well I could just go on forever . All I’m going to say is grab on tight and prepare yourself because Ashley , Chad , Jase and Are’s are about to take you on one wild ride . Siobhan Davis never fails to exceed all my expectations !!!
💜Dirty Crazy Bad book #1. - I just have to start off by saying how much I absolutely adore Siobhan Davis’s writing. She truly is a Queen when it comes to writing pretty much all tropes in romance .That being said . I am honestly sitting here trying to find the perfect words to express all the reasons I just loved Dirty Crazy Bad so much . But truth be told they really do not exist. Dirty Crazy bad is the type of story that you really need to experience for yourself simply by picking it up and reading . What I can say is that there are very few authors and series I have come across that have held my attention and grabbed onto all my emotions the way that Siobhan’s books do every single time . Dark , raw , gritty, steamy, intriguing, secrets , lies , twists and turns, high school sweetheart , step brother , boyfriends best friend , kick ass heroine , swoon worthy alphas , heartbreaking, heartfelt, second chances wonderfully written characters that are so unique , and so multi layered and last but certainly not least a storyline i can promise will grab onto all your emotions so tightly and pull at your heartstrings in ways won’t even be expecting. Dirty Crazy Bad has all of the above in spades . I seriously cannot remember the last time I devoured a book in a little less than 4 hours straight. What a amazing start to what I can already tell is going to be a phenomenal duet
Dirty Crazy Bad #2 - Speechless, mind blowing, on the edge of my seat heart beating so freaking fast . Those are only a few things I felt while reading Dirty Crazy Bad 1 and Dirty Crazy Bad 2 . This was and is one of the best duets I have read in such a long time . Siobhan truly is a queen not to mention more talented then I can even express. She has this way of knowing just how to grab onto all your emotions so quickly and how to pull on your heartstrings in ways you definitely will not be expecting. All her characters are so unique , so likable , relatable and extremely multi layered that you really cannot stop yourself from becoming utterly invested. Dirty crazy bad picks up right where DCB 1 left off and man was it a wild ride . So full of intrigue, mystery, drama, suspense, twists and turns, angst , witty banter , off the charts chemistry, heartbreaking and heartfelt moments , family , friendships, secrets , dark , raw , emotional and gritty moments and so much more . Truth is there are no perfect words to express how absolutely amazing this duet is or to express all the emotions it ended up stirring in me . The only way you can really feel those things is to simply pick it up and read it for yourself. But prepare yourself to a very long night because once you start it really is impossible to put it down .

Get ready for the ride of your lives!

The prequel short story

For most of us, this prequel novella is a hot, welcomed bonus. You get the chance to meet the characters for the first time and understand their initial dynamic. It’s the perfect introduction for the crazy world Siobhan Davis has created. Get ready for a rollercoaster that will leave your head spinning!

Book 1 - The title suits it to a T!
Dirty, crazy, “bad” are exactly the words that could describe this amazing, intriguing, page-turner, roller coaster of a book. Full-dimensional characters, a fast-paced, breathtaking plot and a trip back into one of my favorite fictional worlds (it’s a Sainthood spin-off after all and although it’s not necessary to have read Sainthood first to enjoy this book, I would very well recommend it, just because it’s an amazing series). Siobhan Davis gave us another masterpiece yet again!

I love Ash. Like, I seriously love her! She is sassy, loud and generally a rebel fighter. And she owns it! No excuses! She is also loyal to a fault, honest and prepared to defend the ones she loves till her last breath. Not everyone around her share the same notion though, and when trouble knocks on the door, you need to know who is in your corner and who isn’t. And her boys? NO WORDS! I love each and every one of them, although I must admit, Aries is the one that stole my heart the most (the fact that I wanted to smack him on the head from time to time, especially in the beginning, is totally irrelevant!) And the villains? You will love to hate them, I assure you.

This book gave me all the feels. It left me with my head spinning in the best way (it’s Siobhan Davis we are talking about here, so that’s kind of a given). I couldn’t turn the pages fast enough to know what happens next. I am very anxious to know how everything will be sorted out, since this is the first part of a duet.

Book 2 - Absolute Perfection!
A breathtaking, thrilling conclusion to one of the best books/duets I’ve read this year. Siobhan Davis proves once again why she is the Queen of angst and plot twists!

Passion, angst, suspense are the words that can describe this emotional rollercoaster of a book. I couldn’t wait to learn what fate has in store for our beloved characters. Ashley proved once more what an amazing heroine she is. Soul and determination out of steel, she doesn’t back down and does her best to protect the men she loves – and the future she dreams with them. Jase and Chad are swoon-worthy perfection! Amidst the revelations and the difficulties they face, they fight and come out better than before. They are brothers at heart – and they prove it in every turn. But Ares…he is a category on his own…He intrigued me in the first part of the duet, but he totally slayed me in this one. I didn’t expect the emotional carnage he would inflict upon me. I LOVE him. Unconditionally. To say that Ashley is one lucky lady, would be an understatement!

All in all, it was an un-put-downable fantastic read. If you haven’t started with the duet, think about it. You are missing out! The bonus content is also to die for…Trust me, you want to read it! So, fasten your seatbelts and prepare yourselves for a mind-blowing ride! 5 non-negotiable stars!

I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book.

[Heather Douglas · Rating 5 out of 5]

A MUST read series for anyone who loves a good why choose book!! Even better this book is the complete collection so you can go right from one book to the next! Plus Siobhan may have included some bonus chapters in this book ;)

Book 1:

Our FMC Ash is a proud, defiant and bold woman who's comfortable in her own skin and owns every bit of it. She not only has a just as equal badass boyfriend (Chad), but his best friend (Jase) is her lover as well. Like she's living the dream in high school and the guys are more than happy to share her just because it makes her happy. Now that they have graduated high school, they are moving into together to attend the same college, Lowell University. But right from the start her perfect world comes crashing down and what was supposed to be happy times is now dark clouds looming over. Jase is unfortunately in a arrange marriage with a girl named Julia and his dad is now forcing him to cut ties with Ash and not only move in with Julia but act like her fiancé as well. And if this doesn't seem bad enough, Ash's stepbrother, Ares, who has major beef with Chad is moving into their town house at the request of her dad. Even though Ares has an alternative motive he clearly wants Ash.

Just when she thinks she can move on from Jase, she keeps getting sucked back in and going through a painful emotional rollercoaster. She goes through way more than a 19-year-old should ever have to go through, with all the lies and deceptions in only a few months. Even though we are supposed to hate Ares for what he is doing to Ash, I found myself falling in love with his character. He definitely has a heart under all that bad boy persona and HE'S PEIRCED! IYKYK!!

Dirty Crazy Bad just pulls you under with no remorse and captivates every aspect of your life till you get to the very end. Please check trigger warnings before reading, Siobhan does touch some pretty dark topics.

Book 2:

If book 1 was Ash's life imploding, then book 2 was Ares' turn. Like my heart broke for him and everything he went through. To find out why he did what he did and the reasoning behind it, only to have his heart constantly stomped on for years. Life definitely isn't fair for those of the luminary families. But never less, PC1, PC2 (sorry I like their nicknames), Ares and Ash put all their differences aside to work together to save Chad and take down Ash's pyscho bio dad. But in the end, can they all find a HEA after together? Can Ares break down his walls so he can be with Ash? Can Chad recover after what he went through and witnessed?

This series was definitely a rollercoaster of emotions, but I loved every second reading it. To watch the characters, grow into strong independent people. To the feeling of being on the edge of my seat needing to know what was going to happen next. Even just the amazing world building that Siobhan did emersed you in this universe. I can't wait to read the Sainthood Series now and learn about Ash's friend Lo and her sexy men.

A wonderfully, delicious world filled with secrets galore and all kinds of twists and intrigue. I *highly* recommend taking the journey into this world and all of its many different "faces". Welcome to the world of the luminaries... It will be one interesting read that'll keep you on the edge of your seat!!

Book 1:

Gives *whole* new meaning to college problems 😉! WOW!!!!!


“Our society has existed in secret for thousands of years and many, many generations,” she explains as she walks in front of me. “It is steeped in traditions and rules and laws that date back to the fourth century.”

“These four luminaries are at the helm of the world, pulling strings and making things happen from the shadows.”

Starting college is always a new experience for everyone. Eye opening.... But this takes the cake! Ashley never exactly expected "normal" considering she was already dating best friends Jase and Chad. What she *wasn't* expecting was blackmail, secret societies, hearbreak, family secrets, and more lurking in the shadows. There's also the matter of this secret vendetta her step brother Ares has mounted against her. It's most definitely personal, and she has no clue why. Just what she needs....more secrets.

"I meant what I said that first day I was at your house with my mom. I won’t stop until I’ve ruined you, dollface.”

"It’s what you all deserve .” He grips my chin painfully, tilting my face up. “You should make wiser choices in the future.”

Danger and emotions heighten for everyone involved. The reader is taken on one amazing rollercoaster ride!!!! I was screaming at certain points of this book. It was absolutely delicious with the cloak and dagger theme. This world is rich and oh so layered....and with the character of Ares we can't wait to see what other undiscovered answers remain. I for one can't wait for the second part of this phenomenal duet! I know one thing for sure...Ashley will be a whole different person than when she started this school year. I wouldn't count her out though.... think of the mythical phoenix 😉. I can't wait to see her bright colors come to life and see her show everyone what she's truly born to be.

In worlds with secret cabals, gangs, just plain family secrets, relationship issues and more....there's never a boring day. Can Ashley, Jase, Chad and Ares survive the coming revelations, and what's already come to light? This dark and twisty tale grabbed hold of me from the start! It was so layered, and the world building was fantastic!! I loved how strong Ashley and Bree are as two FC's and friends...and can't wait to see what's in store for them in the second part of this epic Duet. I cannot recommend this book enough!!! Please do yourself a favor...get comfy, grab your favorite drink and dive into this jawdropping, twisty turny, adrenaline laced, steamy, surprise filled , brilliant read!!! You won't regret it.

Book 2:

Welcome to the lion's den...❤

Oh the games people play.
Where buried truths and lies are revealed.
Secret societies
Shattered souls

"A shudder ripples over my body as I contemplate how dangerous this man is and how precarious our situation is. I don’t know how we are going to stop him, but we must try. He cannot be allowed to become Lord of The Luminaries.

“As long as everyone does as I say, I give you my word no harm will come to any of your loved ones.” None of us believe it. Not for a single second."

Ashley, Jase, Chad and Ares are in the fight of their lives in this conclusion of the thrilling duet. Get ready for oodles of action, pain, revelations galore, deception, treachery, and so much jam packed into these pages it will leave you speechless. Lives and families at risk, but who can they trust in this twisted game? You'll feel a rollercoaster of emotions, and cheer our FMC on as she makes her way through each and every hurdle. These pages were asolutely riveting!! The characters grabbed hold of me and still haven't let me go. I for one am hoping we may see them again somewhere down the road 😉. This was a must read in my book- two huge thumbs up!!

Dirty Crazy Bad Part 1

Going to college for Ashley was supposed to be a fresh beginning with the two men she loves, Chad and Jase. They are supposed to be moving in together but something evil lays in waiting to tear their world apart. Ashley is blindsided time after time and her heart is broken. Just when she thinks things can’t get worse life proves her wrong.

Secrets, lies, betrayal and danger are just the tip of the story. I think I felt every emotion possible while reading this. Excitement for Ashley to finally be with her guys, confusion at Jases behavior, sympathy for Chad and his family, heart palpitations at Ares’ antics and heartbreak for everything Ashley endures within the pages.

There is so much to unpack here. A secret society, relationship troubles, enemies and trying to decipher the truth from all the lies.
This kept me engaged from the prologue on! I didn’t want to put this book down until I was finished reading it! The hot steamy scenes were thigh clenching, there was plenty of angst, danger and intrigue that kept my pulse racing.
I kept getting blown away, every time I thought I knew what was going to happen the rug was pulled out from underneath me. The details left me with my mouth hanging open and my heart shattered for Ashley.

I can’t wait for part 2 to see how this will all turn out. Will Ashley get a HEA? Will Chad, Jase and Ares prove their worth? How will Ashley maneuver the news of her mothers betrayal? So many questions and I need all the answers!

Be aware this is a dark romance with many triggering actions. Please read the trigger warnings before jumping in.


Part 2

Secrets, lies and betrayal…

Secrets, lies and betrayals that you don’t even see coming bring us to the conclusion of Ashley’s story. We pick up where book 1 left off and we get plenty of answers to questions we were left hanging with from book 1’s cliffhanger ending.

Ashley, Chad, Jase and Ares must swallow their pride to keep the ones they love safe. They will also have to face some horrific moments that will make them stronger together as a team. We also get lots of hot sexy steamy bits that will have you drooling and wishing you were Ashley.

Ares struggles with a lot in this one and we learn more about him and his moms backstory.
We also get a glimpse at some of the side characters that truly make you hope we see them in a future book!

So many twists, turns and revelations that will shock you. The build up to the explosive ending was some of the best world building I’ve read. We also get to see some characters from the Sainthood series and I can never get enough of them.

This is a dark romance and it has some triggering moments so please read the trigger warnings before reading this duet.

Dirty Crazy Bad Collection is all 3 books the prequel, book 1 and book 2 by Siobhan Davis and it is off the hook, out of this world, in the deepest darkest corner of the crypt. I’m floored with this collection of amazing reads. I mean wow. I thought Sainthood and Rydeville Elite were dark…doesn’t hold a candle to this one. Even I was a little taken back by some of the developments. Just holy hell how does she keep thinking up these stuff. Like honestly it dark. Probably the darkest I’ve ever read. And I Love dark. So yeah of coarse I loved this one too. It will overwhelm you, over take you and bury you in the darkest corner with the ancestors. It’s one heck of a cliffy as well so be happy you can move right to book 2 now because
Wow, the Queen of dark has struck again. How does she come up with all these stories…these amazing reads? I’d really like to know. Such awesome work Siobhan Davis! You’re books are always more than I expect…and I’ve grown to expect a lot…thanks to you lol. Few authors can stand up to my standards anymore because well I ARC read and review for one of the best ever!!!
This collection is not for the faint of heart in so many ways. There are some very dark, very demented parts that even I had to take a moment for. Broken bottle…I mean wth?? Who thinks of this stuff. I can tell you who Davis! That’s who. If you like your stories with a twist and depraved moments…this is for you. If you have the dark mindset the darker the better…enjoy. But if you have triggers or you have a weak stomach…then maybe pass on this one. It’s a lot… the title says it all. Dirty! Crazy! Bad! It’s a whirlwind of a combination. The passion and enthusiasm with the four of them can’t be surpassed. What girl wouldn’t want three guys who make her needs, her wants, her desires…the very top priority in their relationship? I mean Jase, Chad and Ares only want to please her..even if they have to share her.
I read this before it came out as an ARC then I was offered the chance to hear it read to me! Now I love to read my books, I use to think I couldn’t follow along as well if I was listening but that is so far from the truth with Siobhan audio books. The narrators really grasp the voices of these characters and give them even more life. The deep, dark, gravelly voice of Ares. Oh man he can command me in the bedroom ANYTIME!!! Such a turn on from just a turn up lol if you know what I mean. I didn’t think this read could get any better but the narration really gives it that ump that pushes it over the edge. Expect multiples lol. Multiples of emotions…if you thought anything else…we should be friends!!!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Holy hot and twisty Batman!! She went and did it again!

This book is hot it’s dark it’s twisty and will have you on the edge of your seat from the first page!

Siobhan Davis is a master at sucking you into her worlds, I was fully submerged and I couldn’t pull myself out of this book even if I wanted to.

The relationship between this group of people is well thought out and whilst I spent a lot of my time hoping between who’s side I was on I found myself pleasantly surprised by one character In particular and I cannot wait to see where Siobhan takes this world in part two!!

Ashley is a strong willed young woman and has all the makings of a Harlow F&-@ing Westbrook!! I truly enjoyed the name drops and I mean you can’t base a book in the sainthood world without the bestie and her men making some form of appearance be that virtually or in person!

As always please do check the trigger warnings for anything that may be harmful to yourself whilst reading!

Dirty crazy Bad 2
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Wow! Siobhan Davis went and did it again with another twisty dark read.

Picking just seconds after part ones cliffhanger Ash and her guys take us on a rollercoaster of a ride. Don’t even try to guess what happens because you’ll probably be wrong!!

This world is beautifully developed and has soo much more potential I cannot wait to see if Siobhan Davis’ muses bring us back into this world one day.

This story is emotional it’s dark and it’s beautiful, watching this quad grow and become one is truely beautiful! I felt all the emotions whilst reading this book I laughed, I cried, and I wanted to scream the world down! I especially love Ares’ growth within this story he really became the man you can see peaking through at times.

I truely am in awe of ms Davis writing and her imagination the world building the character development all top notch!!

Bonus content!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This boxset includes a few extra scenes, some scenes we read but from another’s perspective and also some brand new scenes that were voted on by her readers! I absolutely love all things Siobhan Davis and getting a glimpse into how these characters will react to things not in the original books is absolutely beautiful!

Overall this story from start to finish is a beautiful one but also rather dark in places so please check the warnings and read safely! Your health is always top priority

Dirty Crazy #1
This book was brilliant, magnificent, captivating, gritty, emotional, heart-stopping, steamy, and just flat-out PHENOMENAL! I could not get enough of this story! Siobhan did not disappoint when she said this would be her darkest and steamiest book she’s ever written. Ash, Chad, Jase, and Ares sucked me into their world, and Would. Not. Let. Go.

My heart and emotions were being pulled in all directions, from the relationships between the characters to a secret society to the plot twists and everything in between. My mouth was hanging down to the floor in what seemed like an endless amount of time. Just having my mind-blown with all the revelations that just kept getting brought to the surface of the pages. Damn.

I absolutely devoured this book and could not get enough of what was happening, and my head is still reeling over what I just read. I cannot wait for the second book to see exactly what happens and comes of these character’s future. Will they ultimately win in the end, or will they forever be forced a life they don’t want to live?

Dirty Crazy #2
Holy smokes! This book! THIS BOOK! It was everything I needed and more to wrap up this deliciously dark, secret society. We get all of the questions that were left hanging in the first book answered in here. And those plot twists Siobhan kept throwing out and sucker punching me with had me gasping and screaming so many times. The anxiety level was high throughout this duet, but I honestly loved every minute of it.

Ashley, Chad, Jase, and Ares were characters I never knew I needed in my life. This foursome were thrown into the deep end of betrayals, secrets, and lies and had to come together to fight their way out to the other side. Their loyalty, passion, love, devotion, and understanding amongst each other had you sitting on the edge of your seat and rooting for them the entire time. I hope we get to see them again crossed over in other series because my cup of their deliciousness is not full enough.

Siobhan is absolutely brilliant and has a way with making her words turn into these all-encompassing worlds that I never want to end! I could literally read anything she writes because I know she’s going to pull me in, and I won’t be able to let go until the very last page. Siobhan really knows how to bring the perfect mix of suspense, darkness, and passion to her stories time and time again. I know when I pick up one of her books, I will not be disappointed with the outcome!

Book #1
**4.5 Stars**

Dirty Crazy Bad is an intense, suspenseful and steamy story about Ashley, who is in a long-term relationship with Chad. Along the way they included his bestie Jase into the mix and things couldn't be better. Now they are all in college and things are getting complicated. Ashley's step-brother Ares is moving in with them for reasons unknown to her, and he loves nothing more than to push her buttons and rile Chad up. Ashley can't see it, but both Chad and Jase know Ares wants Ashley for himself. Add in a crazy fiance for Jase and things couldn't really get more crazy....or can they? Let me tell you, they definitely can, and this author straight up delivers.

This story kept me hooked from the first page until the very end, and now I cannot wait to see how this is all going to play out. This author is fantastic at weaving intricate tales that keep you on the edge of your seat trying to figure out where all roads will lead. Just when I found myself liking one character or hating another, the tides would shift and I would be shocked at something that would happen. There is definitely no shortage of steamy goodness that is for sure. I have no idea where this story is going to ultimately lead but I am 100% here for it!

Book #2
This book was engaging from beginning to end. The author has created such an intriguing and unique world with interesting characters and a story line you just can't help but get lost in. It is full of drama, suspense and some seriously hot steamy scenes.

RH books generally aren't my favorite trope, but this author created some wonderful characters and I loved how much Ashley, Jase and Chad love each other and how they made their relationship work and later on how they incorporated Ares into their relationship as well. I loved Ares's possessiveness and jealous side even though it didn't always serve him well.

I always love trying to figure out this author's intricate story lines, but they are always so good I am very rarely able to. I highly enjoy her writing style and this book was no exception. It was a very engaging and enjoyable read and I look forward to reading more of this author's work in the future.

[Kes Marie Reads · Rating 3 out of 5]

This series felt like a mix between The LORDS series by Shantel Tessier and Den of Vipers by K.A Knight (I DNF'd DOV). I definitely enjoyed this more than DOV and finished the entire series, plus the bonus scenes, but I have issues with the writing style and some of the plot holes that I felt were never completely addressed/ made sense.

I really enjoyed that not everyone in the book knew about the secret society, cuz it's supposed to be a secret. Some secret society books, everyone in the book is in on the secret and it takes away some of the mystery. I also liked the plot twist, most of which I didn't completely see coming. The big one at the end I DEFINITELY did not see coming. It was kind of crazy, but hey, that's in the title so it should be expected in some ways.

The spicy scenes in this book were INSANE! This was easily a 4 on the chilly peppers rating scale (out of 5). Smut was it's own subplot in this series for sure in a variety of ways. There really is something for everyone in this book including, but not limited to, MMF, MMFM, stepbrother/stepsister, bully, BDSM, Noncon, vanilla, voyeurism, ect.

I've come to the conclusion that it must be very difficult for authors to write a character who has a different personality type than the author. I probably couldn't do it well. But when the character's thoughts and speech are not written in an authentic way, they don't seem like a real person. More like an anime character. This pitfall in the writing can make it really difficult for me to enjoy a book because I find myself thinking "This isn't how real people talk/think." This was one of the reasons I DNF'd DOV and I experienced some of that in this book as well, but not to the same extent.

Spoiler Ahead

One aspect of the Luminary's that I could never wrap my brain around was that, according to the book, all of the four families had to be inbred AS FUCK! According to the books, the heads of these families only marry and have the children with the other heads immediate family (i.e One Luminary son marries another Luminary's daughter). Marriage to a normal person is strictly forbidden and they've been doing this for thousands of years. There is no way in genetic hell, that all of these families are not closely related by the present time of this book. Zero chance. There is one time in the books that a Luminary married and had children with a normal person, but besides that...inbred....all of them.

[Ellie · Rating 4 out of 5]

Final Score - 4 Stars

That Prequel, for me, was un-necessary. My opinion of that witch Pamela is NEVER gonna change, and reading how she went about coldly and calculating getting a divorce? And then blowing off her kid? Selfish harpy. Worst. Mother. Ever.

Book One for me continues to WOW ... and to Whoa! Seriously.

This book was most definitely Dirty - the only kind I adore and love to read. The filthy, sexy times? Hand me a fan!! I was drooling in envy! Where do I sign up?

It’s also most definitely Crazy - what happens in this book? Not for the faint of heart. I struggled for days to get thru this with exasperation over the shenanigans and happenings but I made it to the other side. Boy am I glad I did too. I need the next book NOW!!

And last but certainly not least - it was oh so Bad. As in bad boys, bad men and, even bad women. All working to outwit one another. Bad life choices/decisions had me struggling not to pull my hair out!

I freaking adore Ash. She’s the bomb dot com. I was feeling Jade and Chad and then it fell apart. I’m still pissed at these two though. And Bree is my kind of girl. Ares is the wildcard and I’m still unsure of him. Hopefully he’ll be explained more in the next book.

Book Two was not what I expected and I was left with questions. The big reveal left me with a flat feel the first time. Having read the prequel, yup. The cray-cray was on the wall, even before I saw for myself in this book. It still doesn't shock me, but it’s still confusing the the way it came about/out. It just felt like too much happened too fast. I just wanted more explanation for Ash's mom being the way she was - was the story she told even true?

Amidst the pain and devastation from the last book, a happy ending was achieved. But what’s up with Bree? My girl needs her story to be told. There’s something brewing there …

All in all, I enjoyed reading this book and it’s conclusion and those bonus scenes *fans self*

[Carolyne · Rating 5 out of 5]

It's so cool to have this complete collection because 1) you really NEED all the books anyway! and 2) there is extra bonus content! No need to despair when you arrive at the end because *yay* there are 5 sinfully delicious bonus scenes to extend your reading pleasure! Here are my reviews for the two individual books:

Dirty Crazy Bad #1
Hollleee hell! This book is so much more than meets the eye. A delightful heroine that totally assumes her inner bitch, is possessive with her guys and is 100% comfortable in her somewhat kinky sexuality: check. Two smoking hot boyfriends who are obsessed with her: check. All right, that was to be expected for a RH. But then the whole plot explodes in an intricate, messy journey wrought with intrigue, angst, and despair. Our girl Ahsley gets sucked into a dark and secret world, while her seemingly perverted and asshole of a stepbrother is bent on destroying everything that matters to her using their potent sexual chemistry to ruin her. In a matter of weeks, "trouble in paradise" turns into a class 5 tornado. This story is raw and crusty, intense and riveting, addictive and incredibly satisfying. The only good part about the end of the book and its jaw-slacking cliffhanger is that there is more to come!

Dirty Crazy Bad #2
Boy, oh, boy! I was salivating for this second book and it did not disappoint. The sexy times between Ash and her men were so steamy I could literally get rid of my humidifier... Each of the guys had me swooning for different reasons, even Ares who had me grinding my teeth at the beginning! The intrigue and complexity of the Luminary world, as well as the depraved plans of the Greed and Gluttony Luminary, took my brain on a spinning ride. This book once again highlights Siobhan's superb writing and incredible imagination, and the combination of gritty, sinful and sexy was phenomenal.

I received an advanced complimentary copy of this book.

[Tori · Rating 5 out of 5]

No matter if it's a MF or a RH Davis knows how to bring the angst, tune into your emotions and dial them up to one million... She truly does excel in both!

Book one

Spice, heat, drama and emotions...

Davis is a true genius always delivering a unique story unforgettable characters and a truely awesome cliff hanger (although thankfully there is no wait with this boxset)

Ashley is her own breed of female bad a$$. She is quite possibly the strongest yet or if not she's pretty damn close, but what she has to go through... Boy, so much turmoil. The guys are insane...they're alpha holes, they're possessive, they're strong and they're hot.

This book has left me shocked, has stripped my emotions bare and yet I still want more.

Secrets are revealed, fights are had and yet... I cannot say anymore without spoilers but yeah it's worth it...

Book 2

Woah, my mind has been blown once more.

Ashley and her guys have an up hill emotional and dramatic struggle, but they are worth fighting for...their intimacy could set the world on fire.

Intense, powerful, beautiful, substantial and gripping all words I could use for this book. Of course there are also the twists... Like seriously just as you're getting to the bottom of them, oh there's another thing to consider..

Although usually in a review I would delve into parts of the book or explain the range of emotions that hit me... I'm not going to do that this time because truthfully I don't think I'd do it justice.

I totally think I'm going to be seeing and feeling stuff that I didn't see/feel last time I read this duet for a while to come ... Excuse me I need to go back and do a re read straight away lol

Bonus scenes

My whole body was racked with new emotions. My insides quaked, I felt it, I saw it and I was encaptured by then once more. The scenes added to the whole experience. Thank you David for adding these phenomenal scenes.
